Alternatively, cook chicken on BBQ grill for 3-4 minutes each side, until cooked through. Set aside to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing thickly.
Ingredients
Jasmine Rice
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- 3 cups water
Chilean Chicken
- 650g chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons Chilean spices
- ½ teaspoon salt
Salad
- 2 tomatoes
- ½ bag baby spinach
- 1 apple
- 1 Palermo capsicum
- ½-1 sachet smoked chilli vinaigrette
To Serve

Steps
-
Preheat BBQ grill to high (if using). Combine rice, water and a pinch of salt in a pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
While rice cooks, pat chicken dry and toss in a shallow bowl with Chilean spices and salt. Set aside for 5 minutes to marinate.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on high heat. Cook chicken for 3-4 minutes each side, until cooked through. Set aside, covered, to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing thickly.
-
While chicken rests, dice tomatoes 1cm and thinly slice apple and capsicum.
-
Toss tomatoes and apple with remaining salad ingredients in a large bowl and season to taste.
-
To serve, place ¾ cup cooked jasmine rice into each bowl and top with Chilean chicken, pebre salsa and salad.
